If you’re considering selling your home in Denver, recent statistics might have made you slightly hesitant. As consumer confidence wanes and higher numbers of homes stay on the market longer, it can look a bit daunting for homeowners wanting to sell their current homes. In fact, markets all across the country are experiencing long marketing periods and difficulties moving inventory. Some agents have even started offering unique perks along with the sale of the homes their advertising, from free gas to vacations and even cars in the hopes of luring potential buyers.
 
So does that mean it’s a bad time to sell? Well, there have definitely been better times to sell a home in Denver, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t overcome the challenges of the market. Here are a few tips to help you get an edge on the competition:
 
•    Make sure your home is in great condition. A pristine home on the inside and outside will attract potential buyers.

•    Consider offering incentives. As the interest rates rise, why not offer to pay discount points on the buyer’s loan to help your home sell faster. You can also offer to pay closing costs.

•    Consider a lease purchase. By being flexible on the terms of selling your home, you may be able to lure more buyers.

•    Be ready to move. Be prepared to vacate quickly to accommodate the potential buyer’s circumstances, whatever they may be. 

•    Make sure your agent is a marketing pro and will work tirelessly to employ every method of advertising.

•    Price it right the first time. If you have to keep lowering the sales price, sellers will know you’re getting desperate.
